Roger Stone slapped with a gag order in Mueller trial

Trump confidante Roger Stone has been placed under a gag order by a federal judge following his headline-grabbing FBI raid and indictment by special counsel Robert Mueller.

Judge Amy Berman ordered Friday afternoon that Stone and his lawyers “must refrain from making statements to the media or in public settings that pose a substantial likelihood” of influencing jurors,” Washington Post reporter Matt Zapotosky tweeted, citing Berman’s statement.

The order includes not just Stone and his attorneys, but also “potential witnesses” and their lawyers as well.
